What's your why.......................?? <BR>
<BR>
Why are you here? What was your goal? Have you achieved it yet? <BR>
<BR>
Jillian Michaels says “If you have a why,, you can tolerate any HOW”-- I truly believe this. <BR>
<BR>
My why is a healthier life, weight loss and to help my arthritis. I never dreamt that I could lose 15 lbs and 15 inches, I never believed that I could run again or endure Jillian Michaels workouts but I can. <BR>
<BR>
For every journey we need a why, it has taken...Sun, 18 Nov 2012 15:39:04 ESTPLUS SIZE MODELhttp://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=5135656

Since I have started my journey I have noticed that my eyes have only ever been on the prize the end in site...... Just this weekend I had a chance to look inside me for a change and see the Non Scale Victories I have had over the past few months and I can not believe that there are so many. <BR>
<BR>
Most of us focus on that end and I feel until we notice the others we may just be STUCK in going through the motions. We have to also do the mental work along with the physical work. Mind you I...Mon, 22 Oct 2012 08:25:56 ESTThat pesky POUND dang nab it!!http://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=5094142
So I do get upset once in awhile............... <BR>
<BR>
I was sure hoping to see 175 by the end of my first Month here, I had a few bad days but I picked myself up and brushed myself off. <BR>
<BR>
But it just aggravates me about the one little pound; I recall when I was at 180 and I so wanted to hit 179 and 179 grrr and that stupid little pound wouldn't come off either took like 2-3 weeks but finally I seen the light of day "ahhhhhh" there it was in all its glory 179 whoot whooot so I kn...Wed, 10 Oct 2012 14:31:06 ESTOne Month............http://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=5094135
I have been on Sparkpeople for One month. In that time I have lost 5 lbs my goal is in sight and I will never give up. <BR>
I have also bought the book and the Cookbook just this past week. <BR>
I have learned many things in one month, like Rome wasn't built in a day............ I did jump in and then after 3 weeks slowed myself down. I know I can walk many many miles, I know my knee still aches from the joint pain but I also know I am in it for the long haul and maybe 3 months from now I wil...Wed, 10 Oct 2012 14:24:34 ESTWhy Purple for Octoberhttp://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=5087524
I know most people add pink in for October for Breast Cancer............ I decided to do Purple for Domestic Violence. So many are still in the dark, refuse to even acknowledged that there is an issue at all. Even many law enforcement turn a blind eye because it is so hard to get involved. <BR>
<BR>
I am a survivor and maybe someday here I may tell my story. I am hoping that I SPARK in interest and help even one people or maybe more to either get involved; or maybe get the help they need to...Fri, 5 Oct 2012 07:50:03 ESTAdding in mileshttp://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=5086168

I challenged myself and found another of Leslie Sansone's Videos with Pilates -- It was a great 3 mile and AB workout. I feel wonderful and I will be using this one twice per week to change up my routines a bit. I usually do a 3 mile then 4 mile then a 5 mile (12 min mile) dvd 6-7 days a week. I believe I am ready to get moving in different aspects. I will continue to walk but add in more ab workouts and strength training routines and post when I find really great ones for beginners of these ...Fri, 21 Sep 2012 09:51:13 EST
